Learn about the history of church buildings and churchgoing in one of York’s finest medieval churches!
We are delighted to offer this short course on medieval church history, which is open to anyone with an interest in finding out more about the history of religion and religious buildings in the medieval period. Led by Dr David Mercer, each week will cover a different aspect of church history, helping you to understand the contexts in which All Saints North Street was built and developed.
